I'm Annelisa, originally from Phoenix, Arizona. I recently graduated from Yale University, where I studied art and its interactions with political journalism and science. I'm happy to tutor on a wide range of subjects, especially writing, college application, and the SAT!

Teaching has always been an important aspect of my life. Throughout high school, I was involved with many academic teams and clubs, where it was crucial for me and my peers to learn from each other in order to grow as individuals as well as strengthen our team dynamic. I spent several years as the captain of my math team, not only leading my team through the excitement of competitions, but also helping them become better mathematicians every week in practice.Since high school, I have held several positions as an instructor, teaching French, Spanish, music, audio engineering, and theater production. Many of these subjects align with my personal hobbies, which allows me to focus on what I think is the most important part of learning--having a good time. Learning is most successful when it is enjoyable, and even fun, so I strive to bring a positive and lively attitude to every tutoring session. I look forward to getting some serious learning done, while not being so serious that we lose the magic of learning.

I'm a sophomore at Yale University working towards a major in Ethics, Politics, and Economics. I have experience tutoring both in person and online, with agencies and independently. I tutor standardized tests, English reading and writing, Spanish, and Latin, as well as my favorite subject to teach: math. I love teaching math because seemingly complicated problems can always be broken down into simpler steps, and it is rewarding to help students understand concepts that seem daunting to them at first. While tutoring math, it is very clear that each and every student has potential, and some use need guidance to discover what they are capable of. The best way to help someone learn is to show them how to take and active role in the learning process. Apart from tutoring, I also love painting in both oil and watercolor, playing rugby, and skiing.

I am proud to have a lifelong love of learning, and through my work I aim to guide and instruct others along their own process of education. As an undergraduate student at Yale University, I took a wide range of courses alongside the requirements for my degree program in Music. I also made sure to keep time free to sing in a cappella groups and to play my cello.After college, I had my first experience teaching music, math, and language skills to students at an international school in Italy. This opportunity opened my eyes to the wonderful rewards of tutoring and teaching, and I have not looked back since!Since returning to the United States, I have offered private tutoring focused on test preparation, worked to coordinate music education outreach projects with a non-profit organization, and worked as the director of several musical ensembles. I completed my masters degree in Choral Conducting at the University of Michigan and am currently back at Yale, where I am a doctoral student in conducting.I love working with students to help them to achieve their potential. I consider myself incredibly fortunate to have had wonderful teachers throughout my life, and I aim to support and encourage my students in the same way!

I recently graduated from Yale University with a degree in Psychology but with intentions of one day going to medical school. I am currently doing research at the Hospital for Special Surgeries to gain valuable experience before heading off to medical school. While at Yale, I played soccer for 4 years and tutored other students in organic chemistry. I am very committed to helping my students improve and enjoy working in the sciences most specifically those on the MCAT - chemistry, organic chemistry, physics and biology.

I am a recent graduate of Yale University and incoming first year medical student at Columbia University. Originally from the DC area, I have always had a passion for science and medicine and pursued a degree in Biology while at Yale. During the 2008-2009 academic year, I tutored science, math, English, history, and Mandarin Chinese part-time with a DC-based tutoring company. At Yale, I worked as a freshman counselor to provide academic and career advice to incoming freshmen. I have taken both SAT and MCAT test prep classes and am familiar with both tests as well as the preparation necessary to score well. My personal career goals include attending medical school to pursue either immunology/infectious diseases or psych/neurology, teaching biology at the university level, and working in public/global health with either the CDC or the WHO.In terms of tutoring style, I like use examples and explanations, practice problems, short-term and long-term scheduling, and positive feedback to achieve results with my students. I find real-world examples are often useful in explaining difficult concepts and restoring interest in a subject. At times I too struggled with science and know how important it is to stay motivated in order to succeed.In my spare time, I enjoy volunteering, listening to and performing music (jazz and classical/choral), swimming, and hip-hop dance.

Rising junior at Yale University studying Mechanical Engineering and Applied Mathematics with tutoring experience in New Haven public school tutoring programs and as a Teaching Assistant in Physics for Stanford Pre-Collegiate Studies.

I'm an elementary school teacher at a classical school outside of Boston. I graduated from Yale last year with a B.S. in psychology. As a student I worked as an undergraduate research assistant in a cognitive neuroscience lab, studied in Paris, debated with the Yale Political Union, and took part in numerous off-campus mentoring and counseling activities. In many ways I am still a student, always trying to grow as a person and in my profession. My favorite subject to teach is math, because there are often many different ways to approach any one problem - the fun is in finding out what works for you!

I graduated from Yale University in May 2017 majoring in political science with a concentration in political economy. I am currently working toward my CPA and will pursue an MBA to foster and grow my career in financial consulting.I have several years of experience tutoring students from 6th grade to high school seniors in various settings: classroom, groups, and one-on-one. I tutor subjects including elementary and middle school Math, English, Spanish; high school SAT II Subject Tests, APs, and the SAT for topics including Spanish, World History, U.S. History, European History, Math (various levels from Algebra, Geometry, Calculus), and others.As a recent college graduate entering the workforce, I have learned the value of a strong educational foundation. I strive to inspire my students to learn not only during our tutoring sessions or in the classroom, but also outside their comfort zone on subjects that may prove challenging. I have learned the value of hard work and dedication in my studies and hope to pass on these values to the students I tutor.Outside of academia, I play club soccer, snowboard, and backpack across the country. I enjoy outdoor activities and fitness outside of work. I work well with others and enjoy the process of teaching students and enriching their educational experience.

I offer tutoring for a wide variety of subjects, including normal paced and 'crash course paced' prep for standardized tests (GMAT/GRE/SAT/ACT). I scored a 750 myself on the GMAT, graduated magna cum laude with a BSc. in Visual Communication and recently received my MBA from Yale. I have tutored students for 3+ years in various subjects including math, statistics, probability, and test prep. I also offer career development counseling - specifically Resume Reviews for people looking to apply to universities or looking to enter the job market.I'm passionate about tutoring because it helped me constantly throughout my schooling and also really helped boost my confidence. My goal with any student is to always make sure they're thorough in all basic concepts before before diving into any classroom/homework problems or test strategies, and I'd love to help you with any of the subjects listed on my profile!

My name is Tori and I am excited to support and guide you while you rock your way to meeting your learning goals! I have a degree in English and I am a certified English teacher as well, and I am fluent in Spanish, too! My journey helping others started more than 10 years ago... I started tutoring when I was in college and I soon realized I loved helping classmates find their aha! moment. It was priceless! After this, I decided my career path was in Education, and I worked towards getting a certification. I have worked in a classroom setting in person and online for about 5 years! Having struggled with some subjects, like Chemistry, while I was a freshman, also gives me a fresh perspective to tutoring. I needed help and I appreciate the experts who helped me succeed. Because of this, I'm aware that students will need help with content, but also building their confidence with the subject, and working through the anxiety or fear they may have by the time they connect with a tutor. But don't worry: I am here to support you in the way that fits best your learning style, prior knowledge, and timelines! I currently tutor full time and love every minute of it! While I have worked with students from Elementary School level to College students, I thoroughly enjoy, and I'm an expert working with students in Middle School and High School. I can meet with students individually, or in a group setting. My favorite subjects are Literature and Conversational Spanish. I also have extensive experience working with struggling students in organizational skills, test taking strategies and executive functioning. I look forward to supporting you in your learning journey: your goals are my #1 priority!

I'm currently a student at Yale who has a fervent passion for teaching those around me! The best way to better the world is to educate and guide the younger. I love to read, write and discuss, so this job naturally works with my attributes! I look forward to helping your loved ones.

As a tutor, I look forward to getting to know my students and their learning styles, in addition to developing tailored lesson plans to best assist them in their problem subjects. I am and have always been committed to education and helping students in any way I can to achieve their academic goals.

I'm a journalist and former teacher with experience teaching and tutoring middle and high school students. I earned a bachelor's degree from Yale University and a master's in teaching from the University of Chicago. I especially love working with students on their writing, from school assignments to college essays. It's exciting to see students go from feeling blocked to writing freely and learning to revise and polish their work.

I'm a senior undergraduate at Yale University studying biomedical engineering and will be starting my Ph.D next year. I was born and raised in Philadelphia and have travelled to a few other countries through study abroad programs and international conferences. I've been to China several times and love to practice my Chinese with others!I love to teach math and science and have served as a math tutor during high school and engineering tutor for two college courses. Some of the most fundamental mathematics to understand are algebra and calculus, so I always seek to tutor these subjects as well as any others in which I am proficient.I enjoy playing musical instruments, including guitar, bass, drums, and clarinet. I also like to powerlift and am always open for a long adventure in the woods!

I am a dedicated educator with years of professional experience teaching students of various ages. I am deeply committed to my students' success and aim to create fun and engaging lessons.

I am a recent graduate of Yale University as well as of a prestigious New York City Magnet High School. I graduated with a B.A. in an interdisciplinary major focused on economics and political science (3.9 GPA and magna cum laude). I am well equipped to tutor various standardized like the SAT, PSAT, SAT IIs, GMAT, and Regents because of both my familiarity with the exams as well as my success on the exams (2330 on the SAT, 760 on the GMAT)as well as in most subject areas. I have extensive prior experience tutoring in both group and private settings and am excited to make the experience as stress-free and rewarding for my students. Beyond tutoring, I have great familiarity with the college process and have even held a position as an on campus interviewer for students applying to Ivy-league schools. Outside of academics, I enjoy exploring (and eating) at New York city restaurants as well as ballroom dancing. Look forward to working with you!

Do you dream of rocketing into a great law school and receiving an elite JD diploma? I can tutor you to reach the LSAT score you'll need. I received a 173 on my LSAT 99th percentile and I have a background in film, philosophy and politics. My BA is from Yale and I my MFA is from Brooklyn College.Studying for the LSAT means using intense focus to chew through this difficult test. But you need certain tools to even get a purchase. With my powerhouse analytic mind I can teach you them and with my artists sensitivity I can hold space for the stresses of the journey. Your scores in the reading comprehension, logical reasoning and games sections will rise and doors at powerful law schools will open to you.

I graduated from the University of Minnesota with a degree in Genetics, Cell Biology, and Development. I then attended graduate school at Yale University where I received a Masters of Science in Genetics. In college and graduate school, I have taken many math and science courses and have 4 years of hands-on science lab experience. I love to explain science, especially biology, because I think it is exciting and has many applications in life. My tutoring style is to explain each step so that students learn why they are doing each particular part of the problem, and can apply that knowledge to other problems. I think understanding problems, not memorizing them, aids in learning. I have led many study groups for peers and I coach high school volleyball players in my free time. Additionally, I love baking, sports, and traveling.

I am a senior at Yale University majoring in Humanities. That means I get to study a wide variety of subjects: history, english, philosophy, art history, political philosophy, and more! I've worked as a coach on a rock climbing team for 3 years, so I have a lot of experience working with kids and teens of all ages. Through my volunteer work at an ancient art museum, I also gained experience designing classes and presentations for adults. My passion is writing, so I'm most excited to tutor English and help with college applications; having recently gone through the college application process myself, I am confident I can help craft stellar applications. When I'm not studying or tutoring, I love to rock climb and generally do anything outside. I love hiking, wakeboarding, and kayaking, and can talk about the outdoors for hours!

Hi! I'm an undergraduate student at Yale University, with a prospective double major in Mathematics and History. I strive to bring students toward their lightbulb moments not by repeating facts until they're drilled in, but by helping my students understand precisely why the laws of science, the rules of grammar, and the events of history are the way they are, and by lifting the curtain on the intricacies of the subject matter. I believe that learning is, and ought to be, for its own sake.Math and philosophy, and their nuanced interactions, are my great passions. I've run more 5ks and 10ks than I can count, but the validation of completing a long race is nothing like the satisfying moment of writing "Q.E.D." on a difficult proof. I'm a scholar of the Western canon, greatly influenced by great thinkers and writers of the past such as Plato, Virgil, Aquinas, and Anselm. I love to read and to discuss what I've read, and I heartily appreciate a good philosophical argument. Extracurricularly, I write musicals, one of which premiered at Yale last year, and attend Yale Political Union meetings to debate the pros and cons of various fiscal and social policies until the crack of dawn.

My name is Sam, and I recently graduated from Yale University with a BA in History. I really enjoy helping people learn. Teaching is great, and I'm here to help!

Hi. My name is Tom. I'm a professional SAT and ACT tutor with a Bachelor's and Master's degree from Yale University and extensive experience (10+ years) tutoring students for the SAT and ACT exams. I got a 1590 on my SAT. That score was on the first try so I didn't take the ACT at the time but I consistently score 35-36 on ACT practice tests. I am equally comfortable teaching the English and Math sections of the exams, including use of the Desmos calculator, and my approach is 100% test focused. Over the past decade I've taught hundreds of High School students both one-on-one and in small groups with both private tutoring companies and independently and I'm happy to work full-time for Varsity Tutors now. I would love to help you improve your score and maximize your chances in the college application process.

Eight years ago, I founded a reading and writing enrichment program for students in my hometown and quickly fell in love with the tutoring experience. Helping students reach their full potential -- and beyond -- is deeply rewarding, and I enjoyed getting to know my students and developing individualized plans to maximize their strengths.Since then, I've tutored high school and college students both in person and online in subjects like academic writing, English and literature, and standardized test prep. And while reading and writing are my specialties, I've also tutored extensively in Spanish, logic, philosophy, psychology, political science, and more.In addition to my academic tutoring work, I'm passionate about guiding high schoolers through the college application process. The admissions process is probably one of the most confusing, anxiety-inducing experiences you'll have in high school, but I'm full of ideas for making the entire process as successful and stress-free as possible. I've successfully guided many students through every stage of admissions -- from figuring out where to apply and then staying organized and on-track, to "packaging" themselves and producing a perfect personal statement -- and I love witnessing them achieve their admissions dreams.

I am a veteran college chemistry professor with a Ph.D. from Yale who has taught Organic Chemistry and General Chemistry I many times. I have also taught Introductory Chemistry to students who had never had chemistry before and also a General, Organic, and Biochemistry course for health professions. I look at chemistry as a set of skills to be learned, similar to learning a sport or a musical instrument. I can show you what to do, but to really learn you need to do things yourself.

I thrive in tutoring humanities - English literature, Latin, art history, music (keyboard, music theory and music history), philosophy and history. I am liberal arts trained and excel at connecting concepts across academic disciplines.

I am a graduate of Yale University with a Bachelor of Arts in English and Theater Studies. I tutor a variety of subjects, but I have the most fun with English and Writing. While still at Yale, I worked at the Cooperative Arts and Humanities High School teaching writing and playwriting to freshmen students. I saw exciting advancements in my students' skills during my time there, and I believe it was because I made sure that my classes were always fun as well as informative. I have had the most success teaching when I help my students to develop an independent interest in the material we are working on. When not tutoring, I am a working actor in New York who enjoys running in Fort Tryon Park and watching Game of Thrones.

I'm Meghana, and I'm a recent graduate of Yale University, where I majored in English Literature with a concentration in creative writing. I have worked with undergraduates on journalistic projects, taught creative writing workshops for middle and high school students, and tutored elementary school students in reading and listening comprehension.Awards:-Scholastic Art and Writing National Medalist (writing portfolio, poetry).-Yale Journalism Scholar.-Columbia College Chicago Young Authors' Competition Fiction Finalist.-Nancy Thorp Poetry Contest Honorable Mention.-Yale Nathan Hale Associates Scholar.

I'm a senior at Yale University studying anthropology, originally from California. My academic interests center on understanding how culture, inequality, and lived experience shape the way people navigate health and social systems. Alongside my studies, I've spent time supporting students through tutoring and mentoring, including helping with college essays and the admissions processsomething I care about deeply as someone who's navigated those systems myself. Being from California and now studying on the East Coast has given me perspective on how place and community shape opportunity, and I bring that awareness into how I work with others. I'm especially interested in public health and plan to pursue an MPH after graduation, with the goal of working at the intersection of research, community-based work, and health equity. More broadly, I'm driven by a curiosity about people's stories and a commitment to making academic and professional spaces feel more accessible and supportive.

I'm currently an undergraduate at Yale University pursuing a Bachelor of Arts in English. While I am most passionate about English Literature, I tutor a wide range of subjects, including SAT and ACT Prep, High School Level Math, and French Language.Over the past few years, I've become truly passionate about teaching. In high school, I worked as a private tutor for a middle school student. Since starting college, I've taught a seminar every semester to local high schoolers on "Sample-Based Hip-Hop." Both of these experiences have been incredibly fulfilling and have taught me a lot about the inner-workings of good pedagogy. I believe that the foundation of teaching is strong communication and empathy. As such, I think it is important to get to know each student not only as a student but as an individual. I adapt my teaching style depending on the interests, needs, and unique perspective of each student.In my free time, I host a radio show with a couple friends where each week we share music around a central theme. I also love to write and produce my own music, and I work as an audio engineer for my college recording studio.

I am a graduate of Duke University (class of 2017), where I received my Bachelor of Arts in History and Religious Studies with a minor in Economics. I am also a graduate of Yale University (class of 2019), where I received my Master of Arts in Religious Studies with a focus on ancient history. Since graduation, I have worked in the computer software space and as a tutor for over 6 years (both in person and virtually). I have tutoring experience with all grade levels, including undergraduates, in subjects ranging from english and essay writing to ACT/SAT test prep. I love working with students of all ages and personalizing my teaching style to create the most positive and productive learning environment.

I am a certified HR professional with 10 years of experience across a wide range of specializations including employee relations, leaves of absence, multi-state payroll operations, and legal immigration. I am a graduate of Yale University, with a passion for helping students gain admission to their college of choice through admissions essay review and feedback.My teaching style involves learning new concepts by way of real life examples and scenarios, good humor, and a no-stupid-questions mindset. I always encourage my students to pursue the manner of learning they find most interesting and natural.

I graduated from Yale in 2015 with a degree in Anthropology. Next year, I will be attending Stanford Medical School to pursue my MD and hopefully begin a career as a pediatrician.For as long as I can remember, I have loved math and science. Now, as a tutor, I am extremely excited to share my passion for these subjects with other students. Though math and science can often be intimidating, I hope to show how approachable these subjects really are.

By focusing on these skills, I believe students can improve in every subject and better prepare themselves for college and beyond!

Hello! My name is Alice Zhao, and I'm a rising senior at Yale University. My two main passions in life are biology and English--people might see them as completely opposite subjects, but I think they're just two sides of the same coin! As a tutor, I believe that flexibility and personalization are key. Above all, my goal is to help people not just do well in their assignments but also truly understand the material. I look forward to working with you!

I am a recent Yale graduate with a B.S in chemical engineering. I have over 5 years of experience tutoring a wide range of subjects, and I am very passionate about math and science. My favorite part of tutoring is instilling confidence into students and making them feel that they can understand and enjoy a subject.
